Quick Check

1. What's a good naming convention for exported workflow backups?
   

   Reveal answer

   [workflow-name]_v[version-number]_[date].json — for example, `MorningBrief_v9.0.256_2026-03.json`. This makes it easy to see what the file is and when it was created.

2. Why should you keep at least 3 versions of a workflow?
   

   Reveal answer

   If you discover a problem but don't notice it until after you've made two changes, you need to be able to go back to the version from before both changes happened, not just the most recent one.

3. What's the "before-you-change-it rule"?
   

   Reveal answer

   Always export the current working version before making changes. This takes 30 seconds and gives you a restore point if something breaks.
